Woernle Finds a Huge Double Up

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Facing a three-bet and a call already, Keith Woernle four-bet to 175,000 in the cutoff. The action folded back to the player on his right who five-bet shoved all in. Woernle thought for a brief moment and "sigh-called" off his stack of 403,000.

Keith Woernle: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

Woernle was happy to see that he was the clear favorite but didn't want to watch the cards the hit the felt. The board ran out {k-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{a-Clubs} and Woernle held on to scoop one of the largest pots of the tournament thus far.
